This I will miss.















The country, yes.













The View, yes.











But mostly, I will miss the















people.













because the people

















are























what









make everything work.















and sometimes not work.

















but the not working















always give















s















way to coziness.





and everything is restored











and beautiful

















and cozy.















whether we are sitting around

















a camp fire















or the living room















or the dinner table.

















or laughing















or crying

















or yelling













or debating

















or praying















or worshiping



















we can rest in the knowledge







that something else,























someone else is greater than.





















and eventually everything turns back























to











cozy.













and the sun will shine again

Best find in the boutique this year. Fact.










and break through the darkness.

















and as we go out













away from each other



















to other places















with different cultures











and foods























and clothes























we can be connected











through our coziness.











so stay cozy.

and so we go.

Tinkering beautifully on the piano. Also, when you sing "Lord, I Saw the Light" in your cute southern drawl. I am also waiting for the day that she snips off one of her 42 dreadlocks to give to me as a good-luck charm.

Ok, haven't seen Jonas for like 3 months, but still, I miss the kid. And Henning... he is the most cozy Norwegian I know. Also, he is the first Norwegian I ever met. He was holding a fishing pole and waiting at the ferry stop. He was also smiling like a maniac and waving frantically. Welcome to Norway.

His giggle. And BABIES. And hilarious one liners. Basic conversations between me and Christophe go thus: Christophe: *giggle* *something amusing and borderline rude/scandalous* Me: CHRISTOPHE! *shocked and confused*
